replying to myself to help anyone in the future with this problem, for some reason if you "remove device" from the pcvr app it just works. i really wish quest software didnt suck so badly but here we all are!

Hey! having a similar issue to credator, except every time i hit "launch" i get put on a loading screen and i sit there for eternity. tried the above steps. task manager shows it starts doing something then just stops for some reason
